The Brand New 2017 Yamaha AR195 and SX195

[DavisAR195]

What model is it and how big is the tube? How much did you pay for it?

Samson typhoon swivel wake/surf rack, it was $665.00. I got it from the dealer so I'm not sure which diameter size.

@SCP1 the tube diameter is 2"

Thanks, I'm assuming the AR195 tower and the AR240's are the same diameter.

Hmm wonder how much of a hit I would take.....

Btw the title has a typo

Ok I've looked at how you lowered your tower many of times, but now I can't find it. Where is this posted I'm thinking I may need this info so I can put my boat in my garage on Saturday.

I don't have a 240 so couldn't tell you. The 192 and 195 are the same tower.

It's in the 19' forum section with 190 and 192 boats.

to the last two posts:

I got the JL Audio tower speakers and JL Amp, it came with a little knob that is mounted right next to the marine audio heat unit and the USB/power outlet in the glove box and it controls the volume of the tower speakers.

JL AUDIO
M770-ETXv3: 7.7" Enclosed Tower Coaxial System, Gloss Black, Sport Grilles
JL AUDIO
M200/2 Class D Full-Range Marine Amplifier



I am fairly certain that allen head screw next to the gas cap is a breather for the gas tank

Did you order these JL Tower speakers right through Yamaha?

I've got the SX195. When I have the stereo off and it's calm I hear a slight crating sound when turning the steering wheel 9-3 o'clock. The noise seems to be coming from the dash area. No problems other than slight noise. Anyone else experience this?

You mean this noise? https://jetboaters.net/threads/white-noise-from-steering-wheel.10838/

 

[Snipes]

Thanks. It sounds more like a grating noise. Maybe coming from a gear box or something just behind the steering wheel?

One day I'm going to remove the wing nuts from the front bow backrest cushion and ride around with the cushion off to locate the source of my noise. Might help find your noise too doing that.

I may as well do this mod while I'm at it https://jetboaters.net/threads/bow-seat-backrest-hinge-mod.13789/#post-239492

through my dealer

 

[Colin MacEachern]

Has anyone found write-ups on here for installing tower speakers and an amp? I would love to do it but am nervous to go in blind messing with the electrical system of my brand new boat. If anyone also knows where to find a write-up for adding more accessory lights that would be awesome too. I can't believe the only accessory light on the whole boat is the tiny one next to the driver seat. I want to add LED strips under the bench and around the bow.

 

[EmeryZ28]

Although I did not install them myself, I was considering it and I found a video showing how you run the wires up through the inside of the tower. I think you should be able to do a youtube search.

I would also like to see a nice write up on installing interior LED lights

 

[Colin MacEachern]

Yeah routing the wiring is not my problem, its the connections that make me nervous. I'd love to at least see a schematic

 

[Chuck OK]

I can't recall if he mentions the schematic but fairly useful

So what do you guys have for numbers on your black AR195's? Some one with a white AR195 has some sweet numbers I was thinking of copy his, obviously the color would be white and yellow.

I tried to match the AR195 color and font the best I could....
